We from the perl group[1] used CVS and now SVN for packaging. There is
cvs-buildpackage and svn-buildpackage that assist you in doing so.
Little HOWTOs are at [1]. 

svn-buildpackage has special support for only having the debian dir in
svn, you might want to check that out.

On how to get a svn repository: see http://svn.debian.org/
